Wings of Destruction
Chapter 2
I will never forget that day, July 20, 1492, the first day of summer celebration. Because it was not until that day that I understood what real fear was.
My name is lark field. I have no father or mother since I was a child. Heather raised me. He is not only my adoptive father but also my mentor.
Heathed is a veteran mercenary. His experience can''t be said for three days and nights. During the six years when I studied with him, our adventure experience is enough to write an adventure novel.
I am 26 years old and old Heather is 45 years old, but he looks more vicissitudes than his actual age. Because our profession is too special, we often eat and sleep in the open air, and we have experienced all kinds of sensational things.
Since we heard that the summer celebration was going to be held in the King City, old Heather and I went all the way from Wilson in the northern province to kairandier. When I saw this holy city with my own eyes, I couldn''t help being impressed by its beauty.
The city''s roads are paved with granite, and the white marble buildings are simple and atmospheric. The bustling people, bustling markets and noisy bars on the streets all tell about the prosperity of the city.
Many people from all sides of the Empire began to prepare for the trip to kairandier a long time ago. Finally, today, they all arrived at this magnificent King City.
Everyone has only one purpose, that is to celebrate the next summer celebration.
Old Heather and I also came all the way from Wilson to the king''s city to see this unprecedented event. In fact, the main thing is that I want to see the legendary beautiful queen. Finally, old Heather finally agreed to join me in the summer celebration.
The king''s speech, the review of the honor guard and the parade of the float have nothing to do with us. Because too many people came, the huge square in front of the Hero Hall had already been surrounded by a sea of people.
Old Heather and I had to live in a place called green dragon tavern. I was forced to listen to the bar owner chattering about the heroic deeds of King Theoden, while old Heather sat there reading the book in his hand.
The only thing I''m glad about is that the waitress in the bar is pretty good.
At night, there are carnival people everywhere. People forget themselves and drink in the sea.
At this time, the festival fireworks rumbled, and the sky was illuminated by colorful fireworks. I didn''t drink with old Heather because old Heather taught me to keep a clear head all the time.
At the moment, people''s laughter shrouded the whole city in a thick festival atmosphere.
I wanted to have the courage to talk to the lovely waitress, but several people got there first. The group looked as if they were drunk. There were three of them and began to play with the waitress.
The waitress was unhappy. She wanted to push away the three drunks, but they were entangled in each other.
I really couldn''t see it and walked over. Old heathed looked at the book without stopping it. He looked at the book quietly.
"Please show some respect to this lady. People don''t want to talk to you."
My voice was not loud, and the other three burst into laughter.
"Ha ha, where''s the hairy boy?" said one of them
"How old are you, you sissy? Give it to me and roll as far as you can." said a drunk man with braids
"Still want a hero to save the beauty? You little boy, get under my crotch and I''ll spare your life." said another man with a scar on his face
After the three people had finished their own words, I told them by action that people can''t judge by appearance and the sea can''t be measured.
The one with a scar on his face took out a dagger and stabbed me, while I cut off his ear with the dagger I took from the scar face. When the blood flowed from his ear, he might not know what happened. Two other people who tried to attack me were cut off in the same way.
The three of them escaped from the pub with their left ears covered and scolded, leaving only three bloody ears on the ground.
What I want to say is that fortunately they ran fast, otherwise it would not be just their left ear. These are just the tip of the iceberg taught me by old heather. Don''t forget that my work is much more dangerous than this. It''s more than enough to deal with a few drunks.
When the waitress saw me help her out, she immediately liked me more.
"Hello, my name is avina Edith. Just call me avina. Thank you just now." the waitress smiled at me
"You... OK, my name is... Lark field. Just call me lark."
I don''t know why, seeing such a lovely girl, I was inexplicably nervous. I felt a little hot on my face and my heart was pounding.
"Ha ha, you are very kind."
Avina kissed me on the cheek and I felt as if I had been electrocuted. For me, a boy who grew up in the open air since childhood, a kiss from a favorite girl has never been experienced.
While I was still immersed in this sudden wonderful happiness and did not slow down, the three men who had my ears cut and a group of people returned to the green dragon tavern
"That''s the boy!" the man with pigtails pointed at me
Suddenly, the group of people he brought rushed to me with weapons in their hands.
For a time, the green dragon tavern was in chaos. Avina was so frightened that she quickly hid.
However, no one thought. There was a loud noise overhead, and the ceiling of the bar was hit by a sudden huge fireball.
"What''s the situation?" I had an emergency when I wanted to show my skills.
Can''t there be something wrong with the salute? I was still thinking, only to hear a cry outside the tavern. More than a dozen people brought by the three drunkards didn''t want to fight with me. They went outside the tavern to see what happened.
Old heathed knew that the situation was bad. He looked very dignified and hurriedly pulled me out of the tavern.
As soon as I got out of the pub, I realized what had happened. Is this the so-called end?
There was a sea of fire on the whole kairandier street, and the sky became extremely ferocious. From the sky, fireballs like lava hit the ground, and charred bodies were everywhere.
It has become like the sky of the day, and a huge dark shadow comes. Is that a dragon? God, it''s really a dragon. The legendary dragon actually appears in front of each of us!
The huge sound of dragon singing makes everyone''s ears and nerves seem to crack. The hot breath of the Dragon turns the Dragon into ashes wherever it goes.
No one can escape from the dragon''s claws. It seems that this once brilliant city will be destroyed in this grand festival tonight. Pain and despair are all over everyone''s heart. Disaster falls from the sky. Everyone is a humble and insignificant existence. Only that dragon is the king who really dominates the world!
Getting out of here is my only idea. I think of avina. I want to find her and take her to escape from this hell on earth.
I turned back to the dilapidated Green Dragon Hotel. I saw the body with pigtails and burned my whole face.
I didn''t have time to sigh because I saw avina huddled under the bar because of fear.
I rushed over, but to my surprise, a burning stake fell down. It''s going to hit my head
